Intent

Intent 1:

To limit the probability that the energy model of the reference building envelope will not accurately reflect the characteristics of the proposed building, which could lead to inaccuracy of the trade-off model, which could lead to overestimation of the energy use attributed to the building envelope of the reference building, which could lead to excessive thermal transfer through the building envelope, which could lead to excessive use of energy, which could lead to an unacceptable effect on the environment.

Intent 2:

To limit the probability that the energy model of the reference building envelope will not accurately reflect the minimum performance levels prescribed by the prescriptive path, which could lead to inaccuracy of the trade-off model, which could lead to overestimation of the energy use attributed to the building envelope of the reference building, which could lead to excessive thermal transfer through the building envelope, which could lead to excessive use of energy, which could lead to an unacceptable effect on the environment.
